With the incredible box office failure of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, it might be time for studios to start to reconsider this new genre of combining two seemingly unrelated ideas into a mash-up of action excitement. At least, you’d think that it might be time, but people in Hollywood don’t learn lessons very well, so let’s move right along to Dinosaurs vs. Aliens, shall we?

Directed by Barry Sonnenfeld and written by Grant Morrison, Dinosaurs vs. Aliens finally answers the age old question – what would happen if aliens showed up to conquer prehistoric Earth? Come on, you know you ask yourself that question at least once daily. I’ll give Sonnenfeld and Morrison credit, though, because with an idea that sounds this eye-rollingly outrageous, I think it’s pretty cool that the trailer is actually them explaining why they made this movie.

After all, any explanation beats the crap out of thinking, “Hold on, someone made a movie about dinosaurs teaming up to battle aliens? No f*cking way.”

Seriously, though, Grant Morrison’s work is usually never boring because it’s far too weird to comprehend. Dinosaurs Vs. Aliens will not have the same problems as Cowboys & Aliens. Instead, it’ll have completely DIFFERENT problems because Grant Morrison is fucking weird.

If there’s one thing prehistoric lizard predators with brains the size of walnuts would be good at, it’d be teaming up to solve problems against a race of creatures that had mastered interstellar transportation.

Prediction: The aliens get defeated and their tech destroyed in a giant explosion, but the dinosaurs get wiped out in the process. Then, a hatch opens on one of the downed alien ships and — surprise! — the aliens is us.
